Posture Incident Groups

To manage posture incidents effectively, you can categorize individual incidents based on several factors, including posture criticality, various Qualys Host fields, and the Qualys PC/PA State.

Qualys Policy Compliance/Policy Audit creates groups of incidents according to the Grouping Rules set up in Qualys Core and assigns them to the remediation team based on established assignment rules.

Grouping posture incidents enhances visibility for remediation owners, enabling them to track remediation efforts with fewer incidents and faster resolutions. It also helps organize posture incidents and facilitates bulk analysis.

As a remediation owner, you can view the posture incident groups assigned to you and your team.
